Hey, is there anywhere I can download a copy of vista with all the updates already applied legally? I have a key and an old DVD but it doesn't even have SP1 and I can't be bothered installing all the updates again. It would be so much easier to just download and burn an iso with all the latest updates.

Microsoft doesn't offer a way to legally download an already slipstreamed Vista SP2 .iso but you could call Microsoft UK and ask them to ship you an updated disc w/o a key, I think you only have to pay shipping costs, I did it once out here in The Netherlands years ago.

On that note, I don't know of any way to legally download an ISO.

Dude, do you know how many times Vista requires a restart before it's fully updated? That ain't gonna work LOL!

why not slipstream the service packs and updates into your current disk using v-Lite. Or is knowing that you have a clean disk image, not some molested disk image on a warez site that takes forever and a year to download, not good enough for you?

Don't know if its been mentioned before but this handy little utility allows you to download updates and keep them on a drive so that you won't have to constantly download all the updates when you do a clean install. Its called wsusofflineupdate.
